Triggering unit for actuating a mechanical switching unit of a device
First Claim
1. A triggering unit for actuating a mechanical switching unit of a device for interrupting a supply phase of a load, the triggering unit comprising:
- a movably mounted plunger, configured to assume a first and a second stop position;
an energy accumulator;
a holding device; and
a printed circuit board coil, wherein the triggering unit is configured to assume a triggered state and a normal state, wherein the plunger is situated in the first stop position in the triggered state and in the second stop position, opposite the first stop position, in the normal state, wherein in the normal state, the energy accumulator is configured to apply an energy accumulator force to the plunger in a direction of the first stop position and the holding device is configured to hold the plunger in the second stop position via a holding force, wherein the printed circuit board coil is configured to generate a printed circuit board coil force, wherein the energy accumulator, the holding device and the printed circuit board coil are embodied in such a way that in an inactive state of the printed circuit board coil, the plunger is configured to remain in the second stop position and, as a result of the printed circuit board coil being activated, the plunger is configured to assume the first stop position, such that the triggered state is present, and wherein the printed circuit board coil is embodied by way of a printed circuit board.

Abstract
A triggering unit includes a tappet having a moving bearing, a power accumulator, a holding device and a printed circuit board coil. In the normal state the power accumulator acts upon the tappet with a power accumulator force in the direction of the first stop position and the holding device holds the tappet with a holding force in the second stop position. A printed circuit board coil force can be generated by an activation of the printed circuit board coil. The power accumulator, the holding device and the printed circuit board coil are formed such that the tappet rests in the second stop position in the inactive state of the printed circuit board coil and through an activation of the printed circuit board coil, the tappet assumes the first stop position such that the triggered status is given.
